Jennifer Lopez's Big Braided Bun Has Already Won the Golden Globes



Not to be dramatic or anything, but Jennifer Lopez just shut the 2020 Golden Globes red carpet all the way down. Sure, that ball gown, complete with a massive golden bow, is nice and all, but it's her mile-high braided updo that's got everyone falling over themselves to capture the moment. Lopez couldn't trust just anyone to create such an important look, so it's no surprise that she leaned on the shoulder of her go-to hairstylist Chris Appleton to construct the style worthy of renaissance royalty. Thankfully, Appleton shared some of his styling process with Allure via a press release. And — no shocker here — this look is not suited for the faint of heart (or head).
The base for Lopez's structural braids is a sleek ponytail; Appleton prepped her wet hair with Color Wow's Dream Coat serum and Cult Favorite hairspray before using a Dyson blow-dryer to smooth hair back and away from her face.
Creating the braid itself seems rather simple: separating the pony into two even sections, braiding them both, coiling and stacking one on top of the other, and securing it all in place with U-shaped pins. Given the sheer size and volume of the braids, though, we're going to go ahead and guess Appleton had some assistance from extensions.
To polish off the look, Appleton tamed pesky flyaways by gently brushing them backward with a toothbrush and evened out Lopez's hairline with pigmented hair powder.

Jennifer Lopez Isn't "Forcing" Alex Rodriguez Into Marriage

Jennifer Lopez isn't in the rush to walk down the aisle...again. The thrice-married singer opens up in the April issue of Harper's Bazaar about why she's taking her time with Alex Rodriguez, whom she's been dating for a little over a year. "I do believe in marriage, and I would love to grow old with somebody in a committed relationship . But I'm not forcing anything right now. It's good, it's healthy; we communicate well. We understand each other's lives in a way that most other people couldn't. We both entered the public eye in our early 20s and overachieved right from the start. And that affects every dynamic in your life, from your family to your work to your relationships," she explains. "We have a similar makeup." But they do have some differences. "He sports-metaphors me to death, and now I do it to everyone else," Lopez confesses. "Baseball is just like life. All you want to do is hit a home

If you missed Jennifer Lopez on the Oscars red carpet Sunday night — we feel you. But luckily, we still got a standout style moment from the megastar. Lopez — who earned a best supporting actress nod for Hustlers at the SAG Awards, Critics’ Choice Awards and Golden Globes but was snubbed by the Academy, much to the disappointment of fans and critics alike — still managed to make a fashion statement on Sunday night despite not walking the 2020 Oscars red carpet. One week after her ground-breaking Super Bowl performance, the 50-year-old singer and actress shared a mirror pic wearing a strappy sequin gown with a sexy cutout and a daring slit up the side.
